Taking A Short Break From Steemit!

Don't worry; I still love every single one of you! But recently things have been a bit overwhelming. I started another business, and I sell stuff in Cryptocurrency! Check out Listia
Which is exciting! I wrote about this a while back that I have been hoping Listia would adopt Crypto instead of using their old currency called "Credits".
It's almost like they read my mind, Because they actually did it, With their new Crypto called XNK
My goal for my Listia store is to put up at least 5,000 of the products that I have for my shirt business. Possibly more.

My life:
2 Businesses, 3 Employees, 1 Job, And A Blog.

Which is CRAZINESS!

I have all these goals, but I'm not quite hitting the mark. For the past couple weeks, I've been thinking realistically about what I can push my body to do. What I can do mentally, And everything I can juggle.

My goal is to get back to where I was before, Writing 2-4 posts for Steemit each day.
But also "diversifying" my efforts on my two businesses.

Social Media

Not only do I have all these responsibilities. But one aspect of having a business is advertising. So I'm hoping I can build up my Instagram and My Pinterest account.
This will enable me to sell more shirts, I've found ways to do this quite effortlessly. Mostly because I'm always focused on creating content for Steemit.
Which I will cover in future blog posts.
I really don't like using other social media sites, And wish I could use Steemit all of the time, But I'd rather not get super salesy on here. "Buy this" "buy that" no thank you!

Some of my plans for the next week

  • I'm going on a short trip, Which you'll see where I'm going. I'm not leaving Utah. But I'll be able to get some cool photos!
  • I'm figuring out a new way of working, That will allow me to maximize my productivity and allow me to kill it in every area, (Hint: It's batching related.)

See You Later!

I'll still be around like I have been on Steemit, I just may not post for a bit. I'm preparing a ton of cool stuff for you guys!
And trying to get everything else on track!
My goal with Steemit has always been to use it as a "long-term investment." And avoid selling the Steem. Which is a big reason I'm trying so hard to diversify my life.

Delegations

I may need to cancel some delegations when I get back as well. I feel bad doing this, But does anyone know if it's okay to cancel Minnowbooster ones a bit early?
If you are someone I cancel on, Please don't take it personal. As I put myself in a position to be more active on here, I may need more power :)

I'll probably be back in like a week :) With lots of awesome vacation pictures and some awesome posts!

Thats a good thing ...you need to focus on your business too....but i bet ... you can't stay away from steemit for many days,,

Hey @kaylinart .... I’m on Instagram too...https://www.instagram.com/steemit_offgridLife and I signed up for listia from the Link you sent and got me Free 5 XNK - See you over there. And Thanks

Heck yeah! Putting in work girl. Yeah, just doing one blog per day is a struggle for me at times while trying to get things done with other businesses.

Just remember, continue to build yourself a business, not a bunch of jobs where you are the business ;-)

Wishing you continued progress.

I love the fact that you💖 are organized and goal oriented. And you also multitask. #teamgirlpower
I hope your shirt business flourishes.
I'd be waiting to see your beautiful vacation pictures and future posts.
How can I find you in your other social media platforms and blog to check out your shirts and keep in touch, while you are away from steemit?😉.

I know the feeling of being overwhelmed, having recently begun renting a house. I'm glad you're in a position with your various ventures that you feel you can afford to step away from Steemit for a breather.

The human body is like any machine in that it will only take good care of you if you take good care of it, and it's all too easy to overextend yourself without noticing right away.

It sounds like you know where you need to distribute your finite focus to at this stage in the game. I hope the time away proves rejuvenating. You're certainly one of the bright lights of this platform, which it wouldn't be the same without.

I have followed @Kaylinart ever since i got on steemit. She, really is one of the bright lights of this platform, and you @alexbeyman.

I think we all get to that level where the need to reinvent ourselves on what we are currently doing and the responsibility to focus on other crucial things meets.

Sometimes we take a breather which helps us not only see things with a renewed sense of focus, but also allow us to see other opportunities that lay around.

For you, i think you have realized time away is all you need. I can only wish you a calm spirit and a open heart to see all you need to see.

I think you are taking a pause for all the right reasons. I had an online apparel business but I had to shut down because my machines were stolen and I was underinsured. I miss it so I wish you the best of luck. Steemit is great fore ecommerce because of the link juice the domain has in google. Make sure you post your products on steemit with a link over to your Listia site. It will give you a competitive advantage to rank for tshirts on Google. Best of luck to you.

Each of your articles seems to generate over $10. From my understanding this creates follow links which are big for SEO. Have you thought about focusing on Steemit posts about your company and products so google will rank them?

Don't know you except from your posts but your an inspiration. You have really done well with your discipline and achievements.

wow! you really do it all! being new to steemit and reaching out and finding other writers and artists i am just beginning to learn about everyone and what they do in and outside of the steemit world - so exciting! i have never heard of listia and definitely intend to check it out. i've just started this part year in publishing my art and writing for the first time, so no businesses around it, but I'm trying for the first time to "get it out" into the world after so many years bottling it all up. so I'm definitely following you to learn more about ways you go about it - you seem so successful! (and i know thats probably after years of hard work!) but just really inspiring to me - thanks for sharing the background behind what you're doing and i look forward to reading more and following along your artist journey :)

I just want to share with you how proud I am.. you have come so far and you were one of my biggest inspirations. When you posted about your car you got from steemit .. I mean wow @kaylinart. I feel closer to you than ever with this last post. I really hope this isn’t goodbye for good but I will definitely check out Listia I never knew about it. Good luck and shine on 🌎🤗😉

Gosh. A week without your contributions here will seem like forever.
We will miss your inspirations, but I'm glad it will be for a while.
I look forward to the pictures and stories behind them. Bring lots of them.

Meanwhile, I feel you should think about selling your stuffs here. May be use another dedicated account for it.

Something like @listiakaylin or @kaylistia
Take care of yourself

Wow that is so smart! I didn't think of doing that. Maybe I could think of a way to do that. Especially now that they deal with crypto.

That will be nice.

I admire your energy and drive. So much to be done by one person, go after your goals. I'll miss you here, for the time you'll be off and I love you too. Take care!

My life:
2 Businesses, 3 Employees, 1 Job, And A Blog.

Mehn I am impressed and at the same time motivated by you @kaylinart. It's cool seeing a lady this hardworking. I don't know how old you are but from you picture I see that you are still young and I must say you are a big motivation to lots of young people on steemit. Keep it up dearie.

It's a good thing that you even want to diversify more and we are right behind you. Do well to keep us updated on your new ventures and I cant wait to see you travel pictures . Wil be right here waiting for you when you return from you trip. Can't wait to have you back.

I'm 25 :)
Thank you so much :)
I will! I will be back soon with my 2 posts a day at least

Whaaatttt? 25? Damn! I am 27 and I havnt achieve half what you have achieved . Mehn I really need to buckle up. You see why I call you my motivation?lolzz....Nice one dearie

Awww I hope you enjoy your time off and can't wait for you to be back to posting! You are very busy so don't over-exert yourself darling. :)

Thank you hehe :) I'm trying not to, It's hard at times lol I'm addicted to all this stuff

I know the feeling, been doing game streams nearly every day and it takes a toll on you

Good post

Wow. @kaylinart. I wish you all the best in your pursuit. A big decision as this truly requires planning and I totally understand what you mean.

Looking forward to your trip pictures. By the way, how about yours hiking count. Hope that's not gonna suffer?

Hopefully not! I hope to go on more hikes too :) Lately the weather has been bad so I haven't been able to hike much.

Starting a new business can be really overwhelming and it requires alot of time and care. So take your time, build your business and rack in profits. I looking forward to having you back here.

Thank you! It is ! But certainly exciting.

I'll missssss youuuuuu @kaylinart

@kaylinart I really like how you are gathering yourself to get some perspective on where you need to be at this point. It is good to take a step back take a breath then charge your batteries back UP. Lots of people really have love and respect for you here and we all know you will be back.

Great post I can tell you're a true entrepreneur, will be interesting to see how Ink Protocol does as a currency, I see its been ranging from .085 to .095 over the past few days this will be one to watch closely. You've motivated me to get more done on a daily basis. Best of luck on all your ventures ^^

If you focus too many things at once, the possibility of getting everything done successfully decreases. It's better to focus on some specific things instead of a lot of things. In this way, you can organize everything easily and that will lead to success.

I always enjoy reading your posts. Looking forward to reading more. Wish you all the best, @kaylinart!

Make good money from your business and then buy steem power. Best wishes for your business.

Great post and good writing.i like your post and upvoted.

yo go girl! I'm so happy to hear all of your business plans! Such a go getter. A real inspiration, always!

Hey I love that you're trying to optimize your time! I can help with ig if you need it...I've grown several large accounts and used 2 of them for e-comm!

I love your footer! So cute! It's true that since we have limited time, we have to cut out some things in order to kill it in other areas!

Hey, @Kaylinart I am a blogger too. I would love if you could check my blog - faithpeavey.com - and give me some suggestions for what I should do.

i hope see the pictures of you trip soon !! take care

I wish you the best of luck and hope I can upvote your beautiful art more

How nice of you to take the time to update us in such a detailed way. I've only recently started being active on Steemit and with the time spent I've enjoyed following you. While you're taking a break I'll catch up on all your posts! Good luck with everything🌻

Hello @kaylinart
